Time -- Where does it go and how can I get more???

Isn't it funny how it usually feels like there just isn't enough time in the day, yet it's also incredibly easy to waste time? Am I the only one who feels like I can never find the time for certain things -- and yet I know I waste time too.

Lately, I've been really needing a "creative" break -- whether it be to scrapbook or write, or something. My family doesn't seem to get that whole concept yet though. My kids are really too young to get it -- and DH doesn't seem to have it figured out yet either. I've mentioned several times the need to do some scrapbooking, but unless I insist on it, I rarely seem to get that time. And unfortunately, once I finally get the kids to bed at night, I'm almost always too tired to scrap. There are exceptions, but usually I'm just spent. And I hate that!

Ah well -- someday, perhaps I will get myself more organized and find a solution. I can hope anyway.

Speaking of time -- where in the world has this summer gone?? Half way through July and all the stores are getting back to school sales going and displays up. I think I'm in denial that in just about four weeks my son will be headed back to school already!! And my daughter starts pre-school! (Can't think about that one too much -- the tears will be flowing!) We've kept incredibly busy this summer, but I still feel I haven't accomplished half the things I thought I would with the kids. And time just keeps flying right on by...

I am completely rambling -- pretty boring today. But if you can get anything out of my babble, I guess I would remind you to embrace the day -- and every day. Make the most of every moment -- because doggone it, the time just passes entirely too quickly!
